Glad I Didn't Buy the Scalped Tickets

Since arriving in Boston Tuesday for a meeting, I had been watching e-Bay, and yesterday morning I took a walk around Fenway Park looking for tickets on the street. Interestingly, around the stadium, where there were countless people milling around, I saw other people trying to buy, but I didn't see any sellers. The tickets on e-Bay were beyond the spending limit I had set for myself.

It would have been nice to see a World Series game, not to mention one at Fenway Park. But to have paid $700 or more to go to a game that was essentially over by the end of the 5th inning would have been disappointing.
